1. Your Digital Universal Address
With the NAC Enhanced Google Maps, you can otain the
Universal Address (i.e the eight or ten character NAC)
of any location in the world instantly, and can also

The Universal Address is the standard, efficient and
language independent location signature for any location

"A school bus collided with a
Canadian Pacific Railway truck yesterday (2006-10-17) about
13 kilometers west of Regina, SK, Canada
(NAC: 688S RDBD)."
(you can see how convenient it is no matter it is published
on a web page or a printed newspaper.)

AboutNAC and Universal Address
A Natural Area Code (NAC) can represent both an area or a location anywhere in the world. A two, four, six,
eight or ten character NAC represents respectively an area about 1000km X 700km (like a province), 33km X 23km
(like a city), one square kilometer (like a street block), 35m X 25m (like a building) or one square meter
anywhere in the world. Since an eight or ten character NAC has reached the resolution of a traditional address,
it is also called a Universal Address, for example, NAC: 8KDB PGFD is the Universal Address of Washington
Monument. Using a NAC instead of a traditional address to specify a location can reduce 80% of key input, avoid
difficulties in inputting addresses with foreign characters, eliminate the needs of address databases and specify
all locations no matter whether there are traditional addresses or not. A group
of neighboring NACs can be combined into one NAC such as: 8C Q8 plus 8D Q8 plus 8F Q8 can be written as 8C-F Q8.
If the character after the hyphen represents a number smaller than the character before the hyphen, it means
a rotation, e.g., 8CX-2 Q8S represents 8CX Q8S plus 8CZ Q8S plus 8D1 Q8S plus 8D2 Q8S (note there are no vowels:
A, E, I, O, U, Y in any NAC). A NAC like 8C0-Z Q8D can be simplified to 8C Q8D. Therefore, a NAC can be used
to represent various rectangular areas anywhere in the world.
